2008 Vent Thread (part 4)

[pebadger]

Recurring vent brought on by especially heavy symptoms during the Cub series:

 

The Brewers have to be one of the worst teams in the league in terms of allowing opposing fans to sit right behind home plate. The seat behind the plate are gold. I don't care what the team can get for those seats in terms of revenue: it's worth more to have Brewers fans there than Cubs fans or Reds fans or Cardinals fans back there virtually every game. Give those seats to local Little Leagues. Or Boys and Girls Clubs. Or Boy and Girl Scout troops. Just make sure that the people there are Brewer fans. I don't want to see oposing fans down there whooping it up. Ever.

 

Amd shame on the season ticket holders who sell out their seats way down low in series like this. If you have the scratch to buy seats down near the Doorman, you don't need to be lining your pockets at times like this. I don't care if that's how you finance you season tix. If you're selling out, I call shenanigans on your fandom. It's not that hard to find other Brewer fans who would love to take those seats. Sure you might not make the same in resale, but again, if that's your first priority, I call shenanigans on your "fandom" I don't want to see you in those seats when the playoffs come around.

the Brewer hitters these last few weeks have been way below average except for Mr Braun and Mr Hardy.

I think the crew would be better off finding a veteran Hiiter instead of Bullpen arm.

Cameron has been worthless and i am not sure what has happened to Corey and Bill seems to be back to hi old ways.

I also getting really fed up with Weeks and his inability to produce now that he healthy.

 

The brewers have to be able to leave Miller Park with a split here

[PeaveyFury]

Rickie weeks is a horrific disappointment. Durham makes that throw in his sleep.

[Postseason2006]

I'm sure Nedly will defend him still. Exactly why I want a new coach regardless of where we finish. Poor play for Yost = defending.

[BillyRed]

Weeks is the most frustrating player in Brewer history. I will jump for joy if they can deal him in the off season.

[sweepscc]

It's the wrist though. If Rickie wasn't a high pick he would have been demoted to AAA 3 months ago. Time for him to master the fundamentals in AAA and earn his way back on the big league club.

[Postseason2006]

Any houses burning down tomorrow?

[bullox]

Can't take credit for this one, but it is perfect:

 

Can't spell Rickie Weeks without 3 E's and 2 K's.

[Gobias Industries]

Agreed, even though your first sentence made me want to scream.

[brewmann04]

weeks needs a change of scenery time to sit him and go with the Vets combo of Ray and Craig. The brewers manager needs to realize he has to do what best for this team to win

[Postseason2006]

This game would not be where it is right now if w E E K s makes a play.

[PeaveyFury]

Torres sure picked a fine night to have major control issues for the first time all year....

[PKBadger]

I swear, if there was an "unforced errors" stat in baseball like there is in tennis, the Brewers would lead the league.

 

Stupid, stupid, stupid walks. For God's sake, just throw strikes and if Mike Fontenot beats you, so be it.

 

 

Edit: What I mean to say is, a stat that encompasses things other than the usual "error" - such as walking batters that aren't power threats and running into outs (Hall)

[PeaveyFury]

Bill Hall really needs to sit vs. RHP again.

[Ennder]

I predict a Cubs sweep and we are in 3rd place by Friday.

[brewmann04]

Brewers are just not ready to beat the cubs ,their hitters are a joke here swinging at all kinds of Junk. I can see this 4 game set going downhill fast. Hall is again stinking up the Joint again and is just killing this team along with the poor play on the field by Weeks.ned need to groq a pair and Sit him cause he killing this team. Braun can't carry this team alone.

[Ennder]

The Cubs had about 5 goofy inches away from outs type of hits and that was the difference in the ballgame, don't want to read too much into it even with my BOLD prediction above. Luck played more of a role in this win than anything.

[Mr QL]

I hate Rickie Weeks. I never want to see him again. I've officially gave up on him.

[joshjs]

Currently googling "voodoo curse" with the intent of placing one on Soriano and/or Marmol and/or Zambrano.

[sweepscc]

Last rant for the night:

 

For the love of God, get bullpen help. Your bullpen sucks Melvin.

[brewmann04]

Forget the Bullpen get a clutch hitter who can be selective @ the plate.

Time to revist the Brian Roberts deal.

[pebadger]

Lucky teams like the Twins win games like this 7-0.

[Ennder]

Lucky teams like the Twins win games like this 7-0.

 

This is about the most idiotic post I've seen on these forums, sorry but it is true.

[AJAY]

I just want to scream right now. What a STUPID way to lose a game.

 

Walks, dumb errors, and swinging at balls in the dirt.

[Marc Newfield of Dreams]

We saw the difference between a team of professional hitters and a beer leage softball team. How many Brewers would have taken the pitches the Cubs did tonight, especially in the 9th?

 

I said it yesterday, they're in trouble. I'm hoping for one win.
